Metservice has upgraded our district to an orange heavy rain warning. It is valid until 6pm Wednesday 19 November. We're in for a wet day tomorrow.
Please take care if you are travelling tonight and tomorrow. There is a lot of surface water already on the roads. Surface flooding, slips, and difficult driving conditions are possible.
Stay away from rivers, streams and waterways as they could rise rapidly.
Kerbside collection will take place this Thursday (21 October) and next Thursday (28 October) for Benneydale/Maniaiti residents.
This will be for Blue Council rubbish bags only at this stage. We are unable to pick up recycling under Level 3 restrictions.
